A word from Mr. Minor
What a great time in Greenville and Spartanburg!! So many great
restaurants and fine wine shops so little time. Even though it was a
quick trip, I had the opportunity to visit some wonderful restaurants
and eat some incredible food. Too much on Monday night by the way.
Thanks to all of the great support for Sean Minor Wines by the
restaurants and fine wine shops in the area. Especially the wait staff
and retailers. I loved hearing the stories on how they enjoy the
wines when they are off work with friends. And thanks to all of the
consumers that came out to our tastings. We really appreciate the
opportunity to show our wines. A special thank you to “the” Carolina
Wine Girl for creating a great wine atmosphere and supporting our
wines. You make the rest of this easy for the rest of us. Sean likes

Rock Star in Greenville today!
In the world of wine, the wine makers and winery owners are rock stars! Especially if they make really delicious wine! I am very excited to have Sean Minor of Sean Minor Winery visiting Greenville the next two days. In his own words, “We founded Four Bears Winery and Sean Minor Wines in 2005 for a number of reasons. First and foremost, we wanted to make delicious, quality wines that continually exceed your expectations. We are all about family and we named our business for our four children: Nick, Elle, Jack and Charlie. Starting our own winery is both a professional and personal dream. Not long after Nicole and I were married, we discovered that our second largest monthly expense was wine. We enjoy wine every day with dinner, when friends and family come to visit, during celebrations… actually, I can’t think of time we don’t enjoy wine. After a number of years in the industry, I knew there had to be a better and more affordable way to produce great wines that didn’t have severe consequences on the pocket-book. We started Four Bears Winery and began sourcing wine lots for our final blends.”
Look for us in the Greenville and Spartanburg area the next two days. We will be visiting several of our local restaurants that pour Sean Minor wines, such as Rick Erwin’s, Nantucket Seafood, Soby’s and many more! We will also be hosting a wine tasting tonight at Northampton Wines (see my earlier post for details), and a wine tasting at the Piedmont Club in Spartanburg tomorrow. Join us for a glass of wine!
